Set to make an indelible impression on the hearts of wine lovers, this is the perfect party fizz.

Vineyard

The Glera grapes are grown in the Province of Treviso in the Veneto region. This unique territory, with its high hills and steep slopes, is so special that it has recently been nominated for entering the World Heritage List. The bond between this territory and product is strong, the winegrowers of this DOC area are the soul of Prosecco and an integral part of the wine's identity.

Winemaking

The grapes were de-stemmed and then gently pressed. The must was fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of no more than 18 to 20°C to preserve the aromatics. The fermentation was interrupted when the residual sugar reached between 2 to 3 grams per litre and was left to rest at chilled temperatures. It was then refermented in pressurised tanks at a maximum pressure of 2.4 atmospheres to obtain the characteristically gentle bubbles.

Serving Suggestion

An ideal apéritif, it pairs perfectly with pre-dinner nibbles.
